6.10.16 DS3 SFP Support
To provide DS3 support, in iMAP release 12.0 the 9000 iMAP devices (except the 9100) add support for a DS3 SFP. (This is
currently the MiRICi-T3, which integrates a complete DS3 interface and a Gigabit Ethernet interworking function into the
form factor of a standard SFP optics device.)
Note: For complete information on the DS3 SFP feature, refer to the iMAP User Guide.
To provision a GE3/GE8 port that includes this DS3 SFP, a profile labeled Etherlike DS3 Port profile is added to the list of
profiles available, as shown in the following figure.
FIGURE 6-69 Profile for DS3 SFP
The profile is used to provision both the Ethernet and DS3 interfaces and has four tabs:
• Common - This is similar to the Common tab for the Etherlike port Profile, except that the Speed must be set to 1Gbps
and Duplex must be Full Duplex. (Auto Negotiation is not supported).
• iMAP - This tab is similar to Etherlike Port profile. The default Direction for this configuration is set to Network, which
disables the DHCP parameters.
• DS3-SFP - This is specifically for the GE port that will include the DS3 SFP, and these parameters must be coordinated
with those at the other end. For information on these parameters, refer to the iMAP User Guide.
• STP - This is similar to the Etherlike Port profile.
Caution: To ensure that the user does not set an egress rate that exceeds the capacity of the DS3 (45Mbps), you must, in the iMAP
tab, provision an Egress Rate Limiter that does not exceed the 45Mbps rate. If it is not set, you receive a warning about this
and that currently no Egress Rate Limiter is set. If you do type in an Egress Rate Limiter, you receive the same warning and
that the Rate Limiter typed in must not exceed 45Mbps. Refer to the following figures.
